SHE FELL IN LOVE WITH HER TEENAGE SON 1 One Saturday evening, Sue found Tommy sitting in the living room watching TV as usual. "Tommy, why are you sitting home tonight? Why don't you go out with someone?" Sue said, sitting down next to her son and putting her arm around his shoulders. They had this conversation almost every weekend. "Come on Mom, give me a break. I don't need to go out, besides, I'd rather be home with you." That had been his standard response. It was a lame excuse and they both knew it. "Tommy, you need to have friends, you know... girlfriends," Sue said in exasperation. Then she looked at him seriously and said, "I'm worried about you." "You seem to do okay without boyfriends. Why do I need girlfriends?" "Come on Tommy, that's different and you know it. I've already been married. Besides, I already have a man. You!" Sue said, squeezing his shoulder affectionately. "Well, I have plenty time to date. Besides, I already have a woman. You!" Tommy replied, smiling at using his mom's own words. Sue sighed in frustration. "Well, we're a fine pair aren't we?" "Mom, you're my best friend," Tommy said seriously, snuggling into her arm. "And you're my best friend too," Sue said, hu--gging him again. However, she couldn't let it go. "You still need to date. It's not healthy." Tommy took a deep breath. "Mom..." "What?" Tommy's mouth was opened but nothing came out. His head fell back on the sofa and he closed his eyes. His face seemed to color in embarrassment. "It's nothing. Never mind," he finally said. "Come on Tommy... please don't close me out," Sue said, turning his face to her and looking into his misty eyes. "We've always been able to talk about anything. Haven't we?" Tommy had wanted to talk to his mother for a long time about his shyness and the stutter but he didn't want to burden her. Additionally, he felt embarrassed talking to her about girls. Now that he had finally gotten up enough nerve to bring the subject up, he knew he had to continue. "It's... it's just that I'm... I'm not so h--ot with the girls. I'm too shy and whenever I get around a nice looking girl I... I... I... get tongue-tied," Tommy said, his eyes unable to meet his mother's. Sue was surprised but tried not to show it. She had never heard him get tongue-tied before. "Now wait a minute, you always say that I'm a nice looking girl and you don't get tongue-tied around me." "I'm serious Mom, I don't know what to do or say around girls. I've only ki--ssed two girls in my whole life," Tommy blurted before he could stop himself. "Really?" Sue said in astonishment. My God, he was 18 and he had only ki--ssed two girls, she thought. He must be a virgin! The realization shocked Sue. Then a bigger problem occurred to her. "You like girls don't you?" "Mommmmmm! Of course I like girls," Tommy said, now totally embarrassed. Sue sighed in relief. "It's just that... just that... oh h-ell... I haven't even been on a real date." "Wow Tommy, I had no idea!" Sue was unable to hide the shock in her voice. "I've seen you go out. You said you were going out with girls." "I'm sorry Mom, I lied. I go to the library or the mall. I just didn't want you to feel bad for me. You have enough on your mind." Suddenly, Sue realized that she had neglected Tommy since his father died. She had been foo--lish to think that she could read him. She had been so busy mourning her own loss, feeling sorry for herself and working on her career that she had missed all the signs. It was obvious now that he was very se--xually immature. God, how could I have been so stu--pid? she thought. The two of them sat silently for a long time. Neither one of them knew what to say. Finally, Sue broke the ice with an idea. "Tommy, what would you think about you and I going on a date?" "Come on Mom! Get serious!" "I am serious. You're very comfortable around me, so why don't we go out? You can act as if I'm your date. I can tell you what you need to work on. After all, I still remember what girls like." Sue stopped when she realized that he might be embarrassed to go out with his mother. "Uh...that is if you wouldn't be too embarrassed to be seen out with your old mom." "God Mom, you're not old. You're the best looking woman I know!" His face turned red as soon as he said it. "Thank you sweetheart, and you are the best looking man I know. So why don't we two good looking people go on a date?" Tommy was quiet for a few minutes, thinking. Maybe it would be good for her to go out, he thought. Besides, she might get off his back about dating. It could be a way for him to help her. Suddenly, he liked the idea. "Well... okay... I guess it might be fun," Tommy finally said in a nonchalant tone. "You don't sound that excited," Sue said with a pout. "That's not it," Tommy said quickly. But... but... "What's wrong sweetie?"

Suddenly, the lights of the theater came on.
Sue jumped as if an electric shock had hi–t her.
She quickly pu–lled the ha–nd from her top. She was trembling as she sat in her seat waiting for the few people in the theater to leave.
Finally, she stood on shaking legs and moved to the isle.
As they left the theater, Tommy had to walk behind his mother in hopes that no one could see his ere–ction.
Sue took a deep breath and sighed as she walked up the aisle in front of Tommy.
She wondered why he lagged behind her. She glanced back and realized the problem that her young date had.
She had to restrain herself from looking back at her son a second time. Suddenly, it was like she was in high school again. It brought back so many fond memories with Tommy’s father.
The ride home was very quiet. Tommy couldn’t believe what had happened in the theater. It was like a dream.
Damn, he practically had his hand on his mother’s b–are bre–ast and she didn’t stop him.
Yet, he still felt emba–rrassed and like a cad. His mom had been nice enough to take him out and this is how he repaid her.
Sue couldn’t believe what she had allowed to happen either. Again, she told herself that it was just innocent fun. After all, her son did need some confidence building, she reasoned.
Tommy unlocked the door of their house, then stopped and turned to his mom.
“Thanks Mom… uh Sue, I… I… I… had a great time,” a little nervous stutter showing up in his voice.
“I did too Tommy, you are a great date,” Sue said sincerely.
Tommy stood nervously in front of his mom, his hand’s fidgeting at his sides. He almost had an overpowering urge to grab her and ki–ss her.
He got control of himself and asked, “Uh… does… does… a guy get a ki–ss on the first… first date,” Tommy blurted nervously.
His heart was bea–ting wi–ldly again. His knees felt like they were going to collapse. When his mother didn’t answer right away, he thought that he had blown it.
“Well, probably not on the first date, but because you were so nice I guess one ki–ss couldn’t hu-rt,” Sue said, her mind screaming No! No!
The beautiful evening, the date and the wine were all working on Sue’s resistance..
Tommy drifted closer and Sue…
